Overview
The story of the LMS, Britain's largest steam railway
This vividly illustrated, easy to read guide describes the story of the LMS, claimed to be the largest private enterprise concern in the British Empire. The LMS was Britain’s largest steam railway and the only one to operate in England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, as well as having two short stretches of line in the Irish Republic. It was also the world's largest owner of railway hotels and the world's largest railway shipping operator. Mainly a steam railway, it had a significant electric service out of Euston in London, and on Merseyside and Manchester, while it was one of the leaders in diesel shunting locomotives, and was a pioneer of using mechanical handling equipment, including large coaling towers. The LMS was mainly a freight railway, but it was still able to boast that it had the best railway carriages, even on suburban services where there was more legroom than offered by other companies.
